On Monday 3rd July we visited the Auckland Museum and took part in learning about Matariki - The Måori New Year. We heard a story about Tå Moko - Måori patterns and design on the face - and we also learnt a song about this using some of our native bird names
- Pekapeka (Bat) Kaka (Parrot), Ruru (Owl) and Kiwi.
We had a lot of fun and really enjoyed our time looking at some of the other
exhibits on display at the museum.

'Ofa thoroughly enjoyed this trip. She was facsinated and keen to learn more about Matariki when she got home, looking up different stories and celebrations online. I loved the way you wore your moko with such pride 'Ofa, thank you for teaching us the song and actions to the bird song.
